About the Operator
We are a local team based in Rwanda, known as Rwanda Eco Company & Safaris, and we have been creating tailor made journeys across Rwanda and East Africa since 2015. All of what we sell are experiences that we know firsthand, meaning we have stayed in all the lodges, driven the roads, explored the parks, and spent time in the communities we recommend to our guests. Every trip is custom-made for the traveler, and we operate our safaris ourselves rather than subcontracting.
We believe that tourism should benefit the places people come to visit, so supporting conservation efforts and local communities is an important part of what we do. A portion of every trip goes towards supporting community initiatives and projects in the areas surrounding the national parks and destinations we visit, helping ensure that tourism creates positive benefits for both visitors and local residents.
